2.) Contact details of our data protection officer

Should you have any questions regarding this Privacy Policy or the processing of your data by this online offer in general, please contact our data protection officer at the following e-mail address:

datenschutz@studio71.com

 

3.) What personal data of yours do we process?

General information

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (e.g., name, address, telephone number, date of birth or e-mail address).

When we process personal data, this means that we collect, store, use, transmit to others or delete it, for example.

In principle, you can use our online offer free of charge without providing personal data. However, the use of certain services, such as listening to our premium songs, may require the submission of personal data, such as registration and signing up for a subscription. If you do not wish to provide us with the necessary data, you will unfortunately not be able to use the corresponding services.

 

4.) What happens when your child uses the app?

Each instance of access is stored in a log file with the following data:

  • Name of the retrieved file
  • Date and time of retrieval
  • Volume of transferred data
  • Notification as to whether the retrieval was successful
  • IP address

On the basis of the storage of the log data, we can trace neither the areas that your child accessed nor the files that were accessed. This also means that you cannot track what your child did in the app.

Why do we collect this data?

The data is only evaluated to optimise the app. Evaluations and publications about the use of the app are always on an anonymous basis.

Transfer of data to third parties does not take place.

 

5.) What do we use your data for and on what legal basis?

We process your personal data for the following purposes and on the basis of the legal bases mentioned. In the event that the data processing is based on a weighing of interests, we will also explain to you our legitimate interest in seeking to process the data:

Purpose Basis
Provision of this online offer and contract fulfilment Contract fulfilment, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR

 

Safeguarding and defending our rights

 

Balance of interests; we have a legitimate interest in asserting and defending our rights, Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR

 

6.) Registration

If you wish to make use of services that require the conclusion of a contract, we will ask you to register. Within the scope of registration, we collect the personal data required for entering into a contract and fulfilment of the contract (e.g., e-mail address, password, details of the desired method of payment if applicable).

 

7.) Data processing through application stores

Before you can install this app, you may need to sign a usage agreement with an application store operator (e.g., Google, Apple) for access to their portal (e.g., Google Play, Apple’s App Store). In connection with the use of the respective application store, the application store operator collects and processes data such as user name, e-mail address and individual device code as the controller. We are not a party to the user agreements with the application store operators and have no control over their data processing. In this respect, the privacy policy of the respective application store operator applies.

 

8.) Who receives your personal data and why?

Your personal data will only be disclosed to third parties by us if this is necessary for contract fulfilment, if we or the third party have a legitimate interest in disclosing it or if you have given your consent for such disclosure. If data is transmitted to third parties, this is explained in the provisions of this Privacy Policy. In the case of transmission based on consent, the explanation can also be provided even if consent is obtained.

In addition, data may be disclosed to third parties if we are required to do so by law or by an enforceable official or court order.

Service providers

We reserve the right to use service providers for collection and processing of data. Service providers receive from us only the personal data that they require for their specific activities. As a rule, service providers are integrated as so-called processors, who may process the personal data of the users of this online offer only in accordance with our instructions.

Insofar as service providers are not already named in the provisions of this Privacy Policy (e.g., in the area of app analysis), the following categories of service providers are involved:

IT service providers (programming of the app and technical administration), Germany

 

9.) How long do we store your data?

We will store your data for as long as is necessary to provide our online offer and the associated services or as long as we have a legitimate interest in further retention. We will delete your personal data in all other cases, with the exception of data that we must retain (e.g., invoices) to comply with legal (e.g., tax or business law) retention periods.

Data that is subject to a retention period will be blocked until expiry of this period.

Specifically, the following retention periods apply to the personal data processed within the scope of this online offer:

Log files: 7 to 10 days

Billing-relevant data: 6 to 10 years

Your account: 14 days after you delete it

 

10.) Processing of data by credit institutions and payment service providers; receivables management

Payment processing is handled by your application store operator (e.g., Google, Apple). In connection with our payable services, the application store operator, as the controller, collects and processes data such as user name, e-mail address, credit card information and individual device code. We are not a party to the user agreements with the application store operators and have no control over their data processing. In this respect, the privacy policy of the respective application store operator applies.

 

11.) Log files

Each time you use the Internet, certain information is automatically transmitted by your end device and stored by us in log files.

The log files are stored by us for the investigation of incidents and for security reasons (e.g., for clarification of hacking attempts) and deleted afterwards. Log files, the further retention of which is required for evidence purposes, are excluded from erasure until final clarification of the respective incident and may be disclosed to investigating authorities in individual cases.

  • Operating system and information about the end device used;
  • http status code (e.g., “request successful” or “requested file not found”)
  • Log files are also used for app analysis.

 

12.) Cookies

This online offer does not use or support cookies.

 

13.) App analysis

We need statistical information about the use of our online offer to enable us to make it more user-friendly, to measure reach and to conduct market research. The app analysis runs through your application store operator (e.g., Google, Apple). The application store operator collects and processes the user data arising in this context as the controller. We are not a party to the user agreements with the application store operators and have no control over their data processing. In this respect, the privacy policy of the respective application store operator applies. The application store operator provides us with the information obtained in this way as long as you have given your consent to this in accordance with the conditions of the application store operator.

 

14.) Your rights (rights of the data subject)

Please use the information in the contact section to assert your rights. Please make sure that we are able to clearly identify you.

You can also delete your user account yourself by following the steps below:

You can delete all data collected by us in connection with the app by clicking “I no longer wish to use this app” under your profile in the app and then selecting permanent erasure. The account will be archived for two weeks and then permanently deleted.

Please note that your data will initially only be blocked if erasure is not possible due to required retention periods.

Your rights of access and rectification

You may request that we confirm whether we are processing personal data concerning you and you have a right to access your data processed by us. If your data is inaccurate or incomplete, you may request that it be rectified or supplemented. If we have disclosed your data to third parties, we will inform them about the correction to the extent required by law.

Your right to erasure

If the legal requirements are met, you can demand immediate erasure of your personal data by us or delete your account yourself as described above.

Your right to restriction of processing

You may request that we restrict processing as long as legal requirements are met.

Your right to data portability

You have the right to receive personal data that you have provided to us for the fulfilment of the contract or on the basis of your consent in a transferable format. In this case, you can also request that we transfer this data directly to a third party, as far as this is technically feasible.

Your right to revocation of consent

If you have given us permission to process your data, you can revoke this permission at any time with effect for the future. The legality of the processing of your data until revocation remains unaffected by this.

Your right to object for personal reasons

You have the right to object to data processing by us for reasons arising from your particular situation, insofar as this data processing is on the legal basis of legitimate interest. We will then cease processing your data unless, in accordance with the statutory provisions, we can prove that there are compelling grounds for further processing which outweigh your rights.

Your right to appeal to a supervisory authority

You have the right to file a complaint with a data protection authority. In particular, you can contact the data protection authority that is responsible for your place of residence or your federal state or that is responsible for the place where the violation of data protection law took place.
